The Club Website

The headings have been like that on my iPad since the 'improvement', HJA.

Maybe Rowena could update us on the steps being taken to resolve the issues?

Could you also look at TW's screen shot on page one of this thread. It clearly shows advertisements to the right of the posting box. Surely IT can remove these as the Club don't usually have third party advertising on their website? I think they are left over from when the Club were promoting a deal on Volvo cars?

The tiny text that seems to be the only one available when writing a post is hardly inclusive and / or welcoming for those with visual impairment.   

And how about this one! 😳

 One wonders how the club allows these sort of adverts, which have no sort of connection to caravanning, to piggyback onto this website, unless of course they are receiving a good financial hand out for doing so? Would you please explain the reasoning behind them being there, Ro.

I've used adblocker to block these adverts. The club should be ashamed. There are plenty of female members who may very well be insulted by such adverts.

I'm no prude but there's no place for this on an inclusive members forum.

There shouldn't be any general adverts on the Club website. However I suspect what has happened is the IT team have set it up to accommodate the Volvo adverts but once that promotion ended Google have just filled the space with general advertising. Its entirely up the the Club's IT department whether the website is set up for advertising and I have no issue with that if its member related promotions. I suspect what has happened is that two departments within the Club are not talking to each other. Whoever does the advertising should have told the IT department that the promotion was over and the IT department should have then reverted the website to none advertising. Does nobody from the IT department have a rummage through Club Together to see what is happening? Probably not.

Like I said further up thread WHO is steering this this organisation 

What has the World Health Organisation got to do with it? 😁

Just install the free adblocker extension or similar and practice how to use it.  Also if you bank online installing Rapport Trusteer Endpoint Protection is well worth doing.
